Pregen ETA extremely long
Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X
RAM: 32GB
Allocated 10GB of RAM
ETA is 48hrs with my LOD Chunk Render distance radius of 256, yet its loading over 400,000 chunks and the eta is a lot longer than I would've assumed considering I have a relatively fast CPU and a lot of RAM. I have c2me,noisium and fastrandom (through fabric-forge connector sinytra), and am running this on a modpack on curseforge (CABIN) with JJThunderToTheMax terrain generation mod. is it the terrain mod that is making my ETA so high, or should I allocated more RAM? I've seen online that for most people it takes hours, but usually its just overnight, so I'm not sure what the issue is for me. Would appreciate any help.

also, just noticed that the chunk count is going up occasionally
is it not just a radius around the centre of the map?
Jjthunder is like 16x as heavy as vanilla
ahh i suppose that makes sense, i do want to have huge terrain so i'll just turn down my render distance for now and load a small amount, then ill turn it back up tommorow but set the cpu load to 1 or 2 and just play while it generates lods
If you want tall mountains you can try tectonic and enable the increased height in its config file, that will make the max height 640 or something like that
And it will be a lot faster than JJThunder
on 1.20.1 forge so i cant use tectonic
although i suppose i could try since i'm using sinytra for fastrandom
Tectonic is a datapack that is also packaged as mod i think
yeah i sort of just want to get large-scale terrain gen i.e big mountains and huge, slightly hilly plains and nice flat areas for building structures
Forge version exists wdym
oh, i read on curseforge it wasnt
mb
Oh idk I don't use curseforge lol
yeah i've always used curseforge but i've started dabbling in modrinth now im playing on newer versions, used to just play 1.12.2 and 1.8.9 so i'm new to neoforge and fabric and that stuff
But yea this is what I would recommend if you want some speed with generation
Its heavier than vanilla, but not by a huge amount
also, would it be fine to increase my RAM allocated?
And you could also add terralith ontop of it
or even impactful
Does it ever go above 90% in the F3 menu
no, its been 70-80% but it says its using 100% when i look in task manager
would that work with the modpack i'm using since the modpack has its own custom biomes already?
Then you don't need to increase the ram
okay chcers
I've used tectonic + terralith + biomes o plenty in a 300+ mod modpack where there were some custom extra biomes and it worked fine
oh sweet
thanks for the advice
Probably go do some checks if the generation isn't messed up in a creative world
yeah, i'm doing a creative world anyway just making huge contraptions and factories with create
thought i'd make it look nice while i'm at it
this looks amazing, and my ETA is less than an hour for 64 chunks distance
i have 20K chunks to load though which confuses me since 64 chunks render distance would mean its a 128 diameter, but its loading 8k more chunks than the area of the circle
The area is a square
